Hi and welcome to my first blog. I loved the movie Julie and Julia, so much so that I decided to look out for the Julia Childs book. However on reading the book, whilst in Borders, I thought who am I kidding? If I buy this book, it will end up on the shelf or in the pile for the garage sale - too hard...
However I still want to improve my cooking skills, and being so rubbish at it, I realised I do actually enjoy watching Nigella Lawson on the tv. She is so glamorous, very likable and she makes cooking seem easy, and perhaps even I can cook like her.
So here goes, my tribute to Nigella and to the movie Julie and Julia. Lets hope it makes me a better cook.
The first creation I made today was Coq au Riesling following Nigella's Express dvd
Ingredients - chicken, leek, mushrooms, garlic oil, bacon, pepper, salt and a bottle of riesling, no joke
and it was a success ... actually I have missed out some crucial ingredients - gold star to those who can advise
My husband, though about an hour late for dinner, noticed the wonderful smell coming from the kitchen and had second helpings.
What is next? n
Tune in and find out .....
